Conntek YL1430520S Generator Y Adapter 30 Amp 125/250 Volt 4 Prong Male Plug To 15/20 Amp Connector Review

This cord/splitter item is critical to make full use of many 120/240V home use generators. Say you have a 5000 Watt 120/240V generator. This means it has two separate 2500 Watt 120V windings. Many generators give you a single 240V outlet and two or three 120V outlets. However, all the 120V outlets are wired to the same winding on the generator. So if you only plug in equipment to the 120V outlets, you really only have a 2500 watt generator. If you load it up with too many connected items, it won't stall... but the single 120V winding in use will eventually melt/fail. Using this L14-30P 4 prong plug with 2 - 120V outlets allows you to use the 240V outlet on your generator and convert it to two 120V oulets, but each one is now connected to a different winding on your generator. You can take power from both windings in your generator and use the unit to its full capacity. Using this cord with a couple of "triple taps" would allow you to plug in 6 household items and spread that load evenly over both windings in your generator.

Is it unfair that you have to buy this somewhat (~$25) expensive (but very sturdy) "cord" to fully utilize your generator that you paid so much for in the first place ? Maybe so....but at least it solves the problem easily! You can check your generator's owner manual to see if all the 120V outlets are attached to only one winding. Some more expensive units may have 120V outlets on both windings. However, I have a fairly expensive Yamaha 6600, and all my 120V outlets are on one winding / one breaker. I had built a homemade cord to perform the same function, but this item looks more professional and is more sturdy. Spread the word to your friends and neighbors who may have bought themselves a nice generator, but may not be utilizing it to the fullest extent, or are facing damage by overworking just one of the windings.
